    Taylormade R5 dual vs R7 steel (3 wood)

    I'm looking to purchase either of these two clubs. I usually shoot in the 90s. I like hitting my 3wood off the tee because I'm much more consistent with it, so that is a big factor when deciding which of these two clubs to choose from. Anyone have a recommendation?

    EDIT: May as well throw the R7 Draw Titanium into the mix.

    the R5 is titanium vs. the r7 is steel. the r7 steels plays like a v-steel only u can move weights.

    personlly i would play a V-steel because i dont need to play around with the weights that the r7 has, and i dont like the feel of the r5. but thats my own opinion

    i suggest going to hit them both and seeing which one feels better and give you the results youre looking for.

    I've struggled to find a 3 wood that I liked in recent years. I bought an R7 Steel in August and almost immediately fell in love with it on the course. While I would at first stand over a 3 wood somewhat concerned that I wouldn't end up with the shot I intended to make, it was amazing how quickly the confidence level rose.

    On the tee, from the fairway, I found the R7 Steel a relatively easy club to hit. I am contemplating acquiring a 5 wood version of it as well this season.
